Step 1: Prep the Patient

Assuming you already have The Sims 2 installed on your Mac, check to make sure The Sims 2 Body Shop is in your Sims 2 folder-it should have appeared there when you installed the game. If it's not there, open The Sims 2 folder on your Sims 2 disc. There you will find a Body Shop file-drag it to your The Sims 2 folder on your hard drive. Don't want to dig out your Sims 2 disc? Go to www.macgamefiles.com, search for The Sims 2 Body Shop, and download a not-as-complete preview version. You'll also want to update The Sims 2 to the most current version-you can download the latest patch at www.aspyr.com. The patch isn't required, but it optimizes The Sims 2 and allows you to install more items into the Body Shop.

Body Shop comes on The Sims 2 DVD, or you can download it from www.macgamefiles.com.
